You want someone to believe that If a person ownes a Midas Muffler franchise then got out and bought a Speedi Lube franchise that he should honor Midas Coupons/Certificates at his Speedi Lube? Yuh....I can really see that happening! I have run different bussiness' in my lifetime and know about keeping separate entitys separate. Its a legal and financial thing. If, God forbid, Lyon's Den has a negative financial turn will everyone also be so quick to shred them in this forum too? I personally have frequented Lyons Den and Willows and will continue to patronize both as I have enjoyed great food, atmosphere and service at both. Cut the people some slack. Life is too short.
Thank you and goodnight!!

I think that folks are justified in being upset when they are encouraged to buy gift certificates and the business disappears shortly thereafter. Willows was extremely active in pushing gift certificates and there is speculation that it was a measure to cover some financial short falls. Believe me that when a business goes under creditors that are owed (and don't receive) money remember forever.
Willows treated their patrons with disdain and the employees worse (I know someone who worked there).
Just my 2 cents
